Introduction

The assignment of administrator permissions allows you simple and comprehensive administration with full control of your server. As an administrator, you have the option of using all available options and functions provided by the game directly in the game. All the steps you need to take to assign administrator permissions for your server will be described below.

Getting the token

To be able to register as an admin on your Terraria server, you need your unique token. This token is generated when you start the server for the first time, then you open the live console where you can find the token:

In this case the token is 4914096.

Enter the token in game

In order to be able to register as an admin, join your server in Terraria and enter the command /setup 4914096 in the game. Of course you replace the token 4914096 with your own.
